360 degree photos for rent Can't Post

My apartment complex came to me asking if I knew anyone that does the 360 degree photos like you see when looking for a place to stay or for a new apartment. They are wanting to update thier website. I called most of the photographers I work with and none of them do it. Since the season is slow this year I thought I would offer to do it. Just set up my tripod and swivel the head taking pictures and then stitch them together. I figure I can make a flash movie and that should work. I have a Nikon D70s with a Tamaron 18-200mm lens. The only problem I thught I might have is my lens.

Has anyone done these and do you have any sugestions.

Thanks

I have not tried this but my Canon 20D came with some software that allows you to stitch together photos. I need to try this as it would be very cool to do panoramic pics and then frame them.

Hey, that kind of work is a significant part of my income. Fly me there, and I'll provide a quantity of quality movies. PM me.

They are refereed to as "virtual tours" and utilize virtual reality software. Anyone can be hardware and software equipped for about $2000 - $3000, but it is a whole lot easier said than done.
